newbie advice

[shock32638]

I''ve spent several days scouring around, and believe that I''ve found what I want, but need some advice on which stone would be a better Choice.


Diamond: #1
Cert: GIA
Carat weight: 1.04
Cut: Ideal
Color: I
Clarity: SI1
Depth %: 61.4%
Table %: 59.0%
Crown: 34.5
Pavilion: 40.8
Girdle: Slightly thick
Culet: None
Fluorescence: Medium blue
Measurements: 6.45 x 6.54 x 3.99
Price: 4600

Diamond #2
Cert: GIA
Carat weight: .97
Cut: Ideal
Color: E
Clarity: SI1
Depth %: 62.1%
Table %: 58.0%
Crown: 34.5
Pavilion: 40.5
Girdle: Medium to Slightly Thick, faceted
Culet: None
Fluorescence: Medium blue
Measurements: 6.32 x 6.28 x 3.91
Price: 4300

Also a Question
Everything I have read indicates that the Flourescence might help #1 look a little less yellow, but I''m concerned with a oily looking stone, is this oilyness more likely in a more colorless stone (as in #2) or is it equally likely to cause a problem in any color of stone?

Where are you getting the crown and pavilion angles?

Round Brilliant
Measurements: 6.28 - 6.32 x 3.91 mm
Carat Weight: 0.97
Color Grade: E
Clarity Grade: SI1
Cut Grade: Excellent

Proportions:
Depth: 62.1 %
Table: 58 %
Crown Angle: 35.5°
Crown Height: 15 %
Pavilion Angle: 40.8°
Pavilion Depth: 43 %
Star length: 60 %
Lower Half: 80 %
Girdle: Medium to Slightly Thick, Faceted
Culet: None

Finish:
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Excellent
Fluorescence: Medium Blue

The question of oiliness (oilyness?) is not a concern at medium fluorescence.

I was getting the crown and pavillion angles from the GIA cert, however it''s a pretty bad copy of it, and I could be wrong in what I read off of it.
